Saint George Scholarship Foundation

The St. George Scholarship Foundation makes educational scholarships available to members of St. George's Parish.  The scholarship foundation was established in 1999 by Monsignor George Ardos in celebration of the Silver Jubilee of the St. George Parish and the fortieth anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. 

The Scholarship Foundation is a non-profit corporation managed by a board of trustees and funded by voluntary contributions.
